Hitchens, Christopher. "Worse Than 1984: North Korea, slave state." Slate. 15 May 2009 <http://www.slate.com /id/2117846>.
The author of this article is Christopher Hitchens, who is a well-known writer on sociopolitical matters and who has been featured on numerous news programs. The article is an editorial about the oppression and repression in North Korea. Based on its appearance on a popular news site, the intended audience would seem to be the general public. The article is a general overview of totalitarianism in North Korea. There is a very strong author bias in the article against North Korea. However, there are still well-presented facts to support his arguments that give value to the article. The article connects very clearly to my thesis, as the title alone indicates.
This article is written by ReligiousTolerance, a well-known website on matters of religion and the treatment of religions around the world. The article serves primarily as a report on the treatment of religion in North Korea. This article is very different than my other sources, which have not spent much time on the treatment of religion in North Korea. This article covers the topic very thoroughly, with lots of useful, specific details. The author maintains an effort to remain objective, with little of her own opinion seeming to affect the article.
